AbstractHistoryArchive Description

An old sailor in a lower George Street tavern recalls a mutiny of convicts bound for Norfolk Isalnd from Hobart Town in 1846. The face of evil, a tender chord in a hardened criminal, a Christian-hearted doctor, and the hanging of all 27 on arrival are the main elements. (PB)
